Howletts, Kent’s original wildlife park, just one hour from London, houses some of the world’s most endangered and rare animals. With over 390 animals, including Kent’s only giant anteaters, the largest herd of African elephants in the UK, more gorillas than any other zoo in the country, and now the introduction of the adorable lion cubs, Zemo and Zala.
Ticket sales help to fund not only the care of the animals here at Howletts Wild Animal Park but will also support our overseas projects in conjunction with The Aspinall Foundation.
